First line in the window
The first sentence of your novel behind a fogged-up window, wiped clear by your readers.
Website for Authors
A website that reads well.
Books, excerpts, readings and a newsletter for everyone waiting for your next book. Set with the respect text deserves.
What your site needs to do
Win readers, fill your readings.
Typography that carries
Typefaces, line lengths and rhythm like a well-set book, on your phone too.
Excerpts
Chapters to dip into, staged line by line if you like, so people can’t stop reading.
Readings & dates
Added in your login with venue, time and ticket link, automatically prepared for Google.
Newsletter
With double opt-in, so your mailing list grows clean and legally sound.
Ideas you can touch
Ideas that make people stay.
Three examples of how interaction can tell a story for authors instead of just sparkling. Your site gets its own, one that doesn’t exist anywhere yet.
Characters as a constellation
Connect the characters in your book into a picture of their relationships.
A poem made of mist
Verses that surface from the smoke when you move the mouse through it.
